Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts

Overview

Half wall-piece half hanging sculpture, this solid ribbon of painted wood breaks apart into leaf forms that intersect with the ceiling and then splash out into space with individual shapes. The entire installation travels down stairs, breaks through walls, and dances in space. Much as the Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts guide their students to live and work through the lens of artistic interpretation, this art work transcends the boundaries of the architecture it interacts with.
